wat
I would fuck that girl with the pink hair and the crown in the ball pit
apart from that wow
cannot believe how sad this is
If anyone doesn't get the colorful bubbles, those are actual names of panels: [URL]http://dashcon2014b.sched.org/[/URL]
The assortment of topics here is definitely...something...
What is the story behind this?
It looks like there was some massive convention proposal and it ended up being a kiddy pool filled with balls, a bouncy playplace and a bunch of people in the corner playing on their 3DS's

so lemme get this straight.
dashcon is a con for tumblr users, and bronies?
and they all got scammed?
can someone explain what this dashcon thing is? is this a similar situation to that scam minecraft con some time back?
For anyone wanting a simplified explanation, please refer to this post from LMAO

Yes, and don't forget Homestucks!

I think it's best to just say, Tumblrites in general got scammed.
[sp]And I think they totally deserve it, because they were dumb enough to just happily blow all their money on a shady sounding thing.[/sp]

Doesn't Tumblr generally hate bronies? Something something taking away girl things?

Tumblrites blowing their money on people who know nothing about the thing they're trying to do?
That sounds... familiar,
[QUOTE=Combin0wnage;45373759]Doesn't Tumblr generally hate bronies? Something something taking away girl things?[/QUOTE]
It has nothing to do with bronies
bronies are generally hated because of how often fans of the show intersect with MRAs
has nothing to do with "taking away girl things"
but yeah dashcon's a fucking disaster and never should have happened
but i guess that's what you get when you get literally the worst and most vocal part of tumblr (superwholock-homestuck-whatthefuckevers) trying to make anything useful

most post ive seen about bronies is their terrible fanbase. not so much stealing something from girls, but polluting it with weird sexual fantasies and sexism.

Most of the tumblrs I've seen involving bronies have been pornographic in nature.
[QUOTE=codemaster85;45373785]most post ive seen about bronies is their terrible fanbase. not so much stealing something from girls, but polluting it with weird sexual fantasies and sexism.[/QUOTE]
Yet tumblrites have two panels called "BDSM 101" and "Shipping 101".
I detect a large quantity of bullshit here :v:

Depends on what sect of Tumblr you go to. I've seen a lot of people complain that they've "stolen something made for girls" because "guys just can't let us have one thing" or some bullshit.
But yes, the overall sentiment is that the fanbase is filled with garbage.

the original con idea didn't sound shady at all, the organizers just straight up lied on that part
though anyone who fell for the 17k thing deserved it

tumblr isn't a hivemind
and there's definitely a difference between "hey let's talk about sex between two consenting adults" and "hey let's make two children's show ponies fuck ni a drawing and jerk off to it"
but the sect of tumblr that dashcon catered to is fucking garbage and i wont defend "Shipping 101" because fuck that it's all teen white girls fetishizing gay people through gratuitous queerbaiting in shitty tv shows
My friend went to Dashcon, and I heard nothing about it. Hearing about thiscon, thatcon, therecon, I just shrugged it off as some random other convention.
Now hearing about it like this, some kind of "Tumblr" convention... Dear God, who would ever want to go to that?

If the bad reading rating were still here, I would give you one.
I was referring to the Tumblrites that were actively either interested, or actually bothered to come to this con.

ok but the section of tumblr that came to this con isn't exactly known for feminism so

Forgive me for being off topic but almost nobody outside of Facepunch believes that, because it just plain doesn't happen. Heck back when most people here loved MRAs they tried tying bronies to "tumblr feminists".
Which actually made a lot more sense because the amount of MLP-related Tumblrs out there constitute some form of evidence. While all the "evidence" behind the idea that bronies are mostly MRAs is them sharing a stereotype of being fat and single.

wow literally one feminism panel in a sea of garbage
maybe that's because there's this thing called intersectionality where some people in a group can also be part of another group????????? but that doesn't mean both groups are the same thing??????
have u tried maybe basic sociology or basic common sense
or you know, not pull stuff out of your ass because you've obviously never interacted with tumblr at all ever?

Why do you care so much about Tumblr Feminists going to a scam con and getting bamboozled out of all their money anyway?
Apparently the ball pit deflated
well now WHATs the FUCKING POINT 0/10 SHIT CON

[QUOTE=Pvt. Martin;45373911]Why do you care so much about Tumblr Feminists going to a scam con and getting bamboozled out of all their money anyway?[/QUOTE]
because "Tumblr feminists" and the shitty bits of tumblr that were attracted to this con are entirely different and you're just trying to group everything up and define it by the worst bits????
It'd be like if I tried to define facepunch as a bunch of pasty, teenaged, middle-class libertarian white teen boys that jerk off to lolicon and thunderf00t videos
It's both an insult and a show of complete ignorance and idiocy to the actual community
